[HTC Excalibur] phil_white99:
what will they think of next?

Wow! A firmware upgrade that will modify the radio electronics so that all of our Dash's will do 3G speeds! HTC must have embedded nanobots in our phones when they built them. Pretty cool!

In other news, send 99.95 to my PayPal website and I'll send an OTA upgrade to your male parts to enlarge them.
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Bwahahahaha! That made my day man!
[HTC Excalibur] jto1027:
is it possible to get the older dashes to upgrade to 3g?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
No one will know @ the mo it's just speculation anyway, but since it says kit then maybe? But i very much doubt that they are going to push out a new load of Dash's since the new HTC models are going to faze out olders a.p.u.
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
That doesn't make any sense after all this time, that they would want to make the dash even better, when they are planning to have all these new phones coming out. In my opinion that would make buyers buy a cheap $50 dollar Dash with 3g instead of a $300 to $400 dollar Snap or Rhodium, specially in this economy where everyone is trying to save money.
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
I think you guys are all misinterpreting the screen shot. I think T-Mobile was at one time referring to the Snap as the "Dash 3G"...that's all. No one's going to upgrade the Excalibur to 3G.
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
exactly why make a phone "better" when u can make a whole new one :D
[HTC Excalibur] kr33mo:
Well why would T-Mo refer to it as the Dash in the screen shot and not "Snap"? Are they renaming "The Snap" to "Dash 3G" for T-Mo? I noticed further down they said "T-Mobile Dash Black" for the black ver of the orig phone, but isnt that phone 3G too? IDK, just thought the article was interesting and was sharing!
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
No!

HTC Snap was the final release name. Before that it was called HTC Maple , Dash 3G , Excalibur 3G. And the Tmo Black Dash is not a 3g device.:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
maybe its an old screenshot
[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
Dude (or dudette) Its the HTC S522, Snap, Maple, MAPL100, 3G Dash or any one of the many other names it has been called during the development process. It is NOT our dear little T-Mobile Dash, it is a wholly new device that will most probably be released under T-Mobile as either the Dash II 3G or the Snap.

The Black Dash is nothing more then a face lift it has nothing new inside its little shell.

Since we have been talking about this new device for about 4 months now, I have to ask.. where have you been? :D
[HTC Excalibur] jeanpiere:
it's a kit!!

ok so i hear y'all scepticism, but umm while i kinna agree with it, why is it that every other device in the screenshot is referred to by their names only yet the one with the dash say "dash 3g kit" i dunno but that kinda sounds like it "could" sound like an upgrade. . .
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
First, nice int3rwebz typz0rz wit miszpellzings.

Second, how would they upgrade a phone that does not have a 3g radio receiver to magically pick it up?

The Snap is HTC's new edition of the Excalibur (or rendition I suppose), so TMO could be calling it the Dash 3g, like they rebranded the Excalibur to the Dash.

Unless they plan on selling a external 3g antenna that plugs into the usb port, I doubt it, even though I doubt the whole idea of having an edge phone evolve to receive 3g.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
On a funny-ish note:

Your Dash is trying to learn 3g, but it can only learn 4 moves. Should your dash forget a move to learn 3g? Dash forgot Windows Mobile and learned 3g

Win?
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
So that's how the Dash will evolve into the Snap, but if you have it hold on to a pancake it evolve in to a Maple! lol
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
lmaooooooooo :D
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Got me chuckle :D

The humble pancake getz a mention again :) "Where is Gix?"
[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
Ok, now I just think you are playing dumb.

1. All packaged devices from T-Mobile are called 'kits', its not that hard to figure out.

2. Did you not notice that the HTC G1 is also called a 'kit' as well as the Black Dash??

3. You cant upgrade our current HTC Dash's to 3G.. it is a hardware thing NOT a software thing. How many times do you need to be told this?
[HTC Excalibur] jeanpiere:
ok let clear things up, if you all read my comment properly you would have realized that i am also very skeptical about the "software update". i was simply making the observation that the way the system is referred to as a "kit" is different from how the other "htc kits" are referred to, jus an observation!!! jeese!!

LOL WAT?! WINDOWS MOBILE IS EVOLVING?!?

Hi guys

I don't know it's just me or.... after I installed the official Youtube app for windows mobile on my uni, it plays only a tiny bit then stuck on connecting, buffering, or even cause the whole unit to froze so i have to do a hard reset.

I also have a HTC tytn (hermes/cingular 8525). i did the same thing and it ran flawlessly!

I thought it couldn't be the hardware since Uni actually has a faster CPU then Hermes. So it should only play it smoother.

My assumption is something to do with the settings etc. Anyone has any input on this?

By the way my uni is Qtek9000 with ROM cooked by TOMAL WM6.1

to download the official youtube app, go to m.youtube.com/app on you mobile.

thanx:o
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
I would like to know the answer to this

In all my years with my Uni I never saw a youtube video:(

And believe me tested several methods.....I think....at least menneyssis bible ones...

Hope someone with more knowledge can make a thread for making youtube work on Universal.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zer037:
surprise~ I just flashed the all new ROM of TOMAL V8.81 and I found the bundled IE browser can play youtube video directly! What a dream come true! (Many thanks to Tomal).

on a side note, I have tried the official youtube mobile application again on the new ROM (v8.81 TML). It's still not working. This time it directly gave me the error "Connection Error: Initialization failed so you cannot search or play videos" some like that.

Anyone has further input on this is appreciated, but hey, talking about being greedy here :p
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Yes it´s true:) I´m using 8.81 too and works great.

I forgot to say that I use Opera mobile and in it I can´t watch youtube

Hello all,

I was wondering if any one bought a device with CPS (Consumer Priority Service) coverage? I'm planning on buying the diamond2 from SMG.GSM with a 4 year coverage + accidental Damage plan...

It is worth it?
[General Topics] iamcanadian:
If I may add,

If I buy an HTC phone from the US, would I still be covered by HTC in Canada?

Thanks
[General Topics] itoYo:
depends on what is meant by accidental damage? and how much the cover is gonna cost!

from what i have seen electronics generally have a greater chance of failing within the first year (or close to the time of manufacture) and towards the end of life 3+ years. if a phone has not developed a fault within the first year then chances are it will not devlope a fault on its own acccord within the next year or two! this then brings in the question what is meant by accidental damage?

besides most people are bored of, and wanna change thier phone after a year!

so i wouldnt advise on getting extended warranties
[General Topics] orb3000:
Agree

It´s just question of taking care of it

I have my Universal since Aug 2005 and only one time has drop to floor but all is ok.

No need of an extended warranty

Just my opinion
[Touch GSM General] nasro_nd:
hi

I have HTC ELF0100 need to add a french language ... but can't enter in bootloader mode to know the IPL and SPL ...and can't Reset too

i try this ways but not work

To enter the bootloader:

Hold down the camera button and reset device with the stylus. Keep holding the camera button until you see 'tricolor' bootloader screen.

An alternative way to enter bootloader:

Switch the device off by long pressing O/I (power) button. hold down the camera button while pressing the O/I button about 1 second. Keep holding the camera button until you see 'tricolor' bootloader screen.

Alternative(universal?) bootloader(3)

As almost all htc smartphones with onboard camera, when you push and hold the camera(photo) button, and plug in usb adapter. Even a "stupid" usb power adapter will work.

To hard reset:

Hold down send/reject buttons (green/red at the front) and reset with the stylus; release the stylus but keep holding the buttons till you get 'this will erase all your personal data' message, then press 'action' (big front button) to hard reset.

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepl please

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] garyf:
How would I go about making such a tab?

I'm imagining a custom bar similar to titaniumweather that has the icons of the ten or even twenty most recently used programs or files in the order they were used with five or so on the home screen at one time and that scrolls to the right to reach earlier ones, allowing a number of programs to be reached without the start menu.

What would I need to write something like that myself, or even better, is something like that already available somewhere?

Just a heads up, there is a BBC news widget in the market now.

Seems pretty good. You will need v1.5 to use it.
[G1 Apps and Games] faithnolonger:
yeah it's pretty good but it'd be better if it could open the news stories in the widget, i still mainly use either bbc low graphics or nubinews when i want to scan through the headlines, widgets only really any use to check headlines!
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
Maybe someone should point the author toward the weather widget someone made and released the source code for, as it opens up the forecast when you click on a day, not that it should be too hard to open in a browser window or similar.
[G1 Apps and Games] minty1978:
if you single tap the news ticker, it brings up a list of recent stories. If you then single tap a story, it opens up the full story in your browser...
[XPERIA X1 General] Gilg@mesh:
Hi

I have a quite big and annoying problem that I hope I can get rid off...

When I listen to music through Coreplayer (version 1.3.0 6213) after a while, maybe 20-30 minutes the phone becomes lazy.. for example when entering the settings (personal,system,connections) the icons does not shows immediately, insteand I see the icons one by one... I have tried many ROMS but I still have this problem..

maybe Coreplayer is the problem but the RAM usage is normal and even when the phone becomes lazy the usage is still around 40%... and even after I close Coreplayer the phone is still lazy and I need to softreset to get it working normal...

so I wonder what the problem is? (maybe I will try a WM 6.5 ROM and see if it works better but I don't have time atm) atm I'm using itjes Touch-IT 7.1 Lite + SPB Mobile Shell 3.0...

thanks
[XPERIA X1 General] gundamboy:
at the moment, I've noticed that coreplayer isn't really 100% stable on the Xperia.

Sure it's had improvements, but I think windows media player works just fine =].
[XPERIA X1 General] Gilg@mesh:
windows media player sucks big time, it's not even near of what Coreplayer can do thats why I don't use it, for example, when switching track with coreplayer I don't need to enter the program to do it, I just do it with the "next" button, and it have more fetures... anyone know another program similiar to Coreplayer that works with xperia?
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
Coreplayer is a media player and not an audio player. Sure, it can play music, but it's like wathing movies on your in-car gps, it can be done, but it's better to use a pmp... Use one of those:

Pocket Player

Pocket Music

Mort Player (the best)

Winamp for Windows Mobile

S2P (pretty good)

Cheers :D
[XPERIA X1 General] jackleung:
It's a well known issue w/ Core Player > 1.24. That's why I still stick w/ 1.24.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sama:
It took me ages to figure this one out! It doesn't tell you in the manual how to do when you've been locked out, and no one has put anything online that I can find yet, so I guess I'll be the first to report it:

1. Power on the device (has to be off first of course)

2. Press and hold the Home button

3. Wait until you see the exclamation mark and phone image

4. Press the Home + Power button together

5. Select factory reset from the menu that appears

that's it.

If you flashed a custom recovery image, wouldn't HOME + END/PWR give you a different screen, instead of the exclamation point?

- Recovery

- HBOOT

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] licensedtoquill:
Am having a problem with unlocking a Hermes using the SIM_CID Unlock version 3A

I appear to be stuck in a loop with the unlock process. I appear to have got as far as having installed OliPro (while still being at bootloader 1.01) but keep getting error 262 UPDATE FAILED

I can then recover to the tri-colour screen and process as far as RECOVERY SUCCESSFUL

But I cant get as far as updating the radio or whatever else it unlocks towards the end of the process and no new ROM loads (if that is what the unlocker does?) The percentage screen appears but doesnt progress at all. Then I get ERROR 262 again.

Is starting to the bootloader screen a sign of a bricked Hermes? I can get SERIAL to show and can get it to change to USB on that screen when I plug it into a computer but cant get any proper communication with the unit from the computer with that screen in place: ActiveSync obvoiusly wont start. As I left the 3A unlocker, it said RECOVERY SUCCESSFUL but does that necessarily mean that I have a brick now? I thought that the installation of olipro by SIM_CID unlock version 3A means that the unit is now hard-unlocked?

(Yes, I did try Hard-SPL-V7.zip but cant set up any communication between the exe file and the tricolour screen)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
If you are using XP, untick "Allow USB Connections" in activesync. Put Hermes into bootloader and connect to PC. Run RUU_Wrapper.exe. Should fix the problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] licensedtoquill:
I thought that tricolour screen meant that it is ONLY starting in bootloader mode?

I am a bit lost: How do I get into bootloader mode? I thought that it starting in the tricolour screen meant that it had started up in boot loader mode? Is there some combination of pressing buttons and 'on' switches like on my Blue Angel?

As it appears to have got stuck in a mode while in an upgrade process which didnt work when this error occurred, when I get it started, what should I flash to get the bootloader updated, the SIM and CID unlocked so that I can choose which ROM to flash? Should I continue with the SuperCIM_CID unlock or Hard SPL?

I have fully unlocked another Hermes before and have been playing around with ROMs but this one seems to have worked out differently: I was under the impression that loading OliPro meant that it was unlocked?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] licensedtoquill:
(Sorry about that answer: I will try RUU_Unwrapper.exe again)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] licensedtoquill:
I did what you said and immediately I unchecked the tick in USB, I heard that the computer was establishing communication with the Hermes

But nothing I could do would let RUU_Wrapper.exe Run and communicate with the device. It just kept reporting NO DEVICE.

So I tried the super SIM and CID unlock again and it tried installing OliPro again and couldn't do so, saying that (having communicated with the device) it couldn't communicate with the device either. I tried retrying a few times with no success and pressing NO with equally no success. So I tried canceling out of the application. it thought about it for about three minutes and then simply started communicating, running the upgrade program. Now it starts the update process and I can see the progress.

However it stops at 21% and doesn't move any further. It has been that way for a few hours now. not sure if it is charging while connected, I suspect not and am wondering what to do now which wont brick the unit??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] licensedtoquill:
Sorry to reply again when no one gave any ideas on my last posting but I am wondering, horror of horrors, whether this might be a hardware problem?

I am now stuck at the tricolour screen ( 1.01, SPL 1.40.Olipro)) which turns on whenever I put the battery in. Connecting to the computer doesnt make any difference and obviously I keep getting ERROR 260 which seems to be a connection error meaning that the computer either isnt connected to the device (or that some software is conflicting somewhere, which is unlikely as flashing to the stock ROM did work before I tried to run V7 again)

Is there any possibility that running SuperCID&SIM unlock (which has never completed) caused all of this and is there any rescue procedure or should I just assume that this is a hardware problem now (or should I do a fresh posting)?

Is it inherently suspicious that tricolour turns in when I just put the battery in AND that even though SERIAL changes to USB on the Hermes, running the v7 hard update utility causes ERROR 260? [Or cant you run V7 when you already have OliPro installed somehow?]

There IS communication: Though I reported in my last posting that I could flash the Cingular ROM, flashing to the Cingular ROM now gets consistently stuck at 14%, sometimes with an ERROR 264!

Good day to you all.

I have purchased the x1i for sometime now and I ran into my first snag. My job requires me to travel a lot around North America. So I find it handy when I can change time zones with my Xperia.

Is there a way I can fix this in my registry?

Hello,

Somewhere this week I will get the HTC Touch Diamond 2. Everytime I get a new phone I am collecting many many information and applications about it. So this time I was collecting some games, but I have a doubt... Will the games of the Diamond work on the Diamond 2? Especially the G-Sensor games. I am collecting those games but then I saw somewhere else that the difference in screen resolution (they had the HD) makes problems. Is this the same at the Diamond 2? Will there be a possibility to change these games?
